I was cleaning out some old boxes last night in my room and I came accross a couple of items that may be of interest to some people on this list! A couple of Canadian 1 trk. promo CD singles from 1991. The first one: Sideways 4:58 CDP 482 (Polygram Records of Canada Inc.) Promotional Copy The second one: In the Meadow 3:40 PCD 127 (Polygram Records of Canada Inc.) This one is stated as "Radio Copy", not Promotional Copy I checked them out in the discography... the second one doesn't seem to be listed at all, and the first one is listed without the catalog number. I no longer want either of these items. I'm willing to trade if anyone has access to any Duran Duran promo CDs. Or there's a couple if MWH items I have always wanted (but cannot locate in this city I live in on the eastern side of Canada): the 12" singles for Pop Goes the World and Moonbeam. If I can't trade these items off, I will auction them. Please write if anyone is interested in trading or buying them. I would rather trade, but I realise that the stuff I want may not be find-able (I couldn't think of a better word....). And another thing... a number of people wrote me about the Ivan concert I recorded in Montreal last month (opening for Duran Duran). I think I have written most of you back, but I listened to the tape again last night, and I just wanted to remind everyone that it's only an audience tape and is FAR from professional quality. But it still has that totally amazing version of PGTW on there... wow! Thanks!

My name is Steve, and I've been on numerous mailing lists, but this is the only one remaining because the level of discussion has remained civil and interesting, and the other hatfans have been incredible about bringing about videotapes and CD's of otherwise unavailable material. Hats off to you all! (Oh man, does that sound stupid...) I am a 29-year-old math teacher who is expecting his first child in less than three weeks. And if that's not exciting, I don't know what is. On the music front, my wife and I were just discussing what our all-time top 10 bands are, and of course MWH was one of mine. For those who might be interested, the others are: The Icicle Works, The Chameleons, Blue Rodeo, Talk Talk, Pink Floyd, Indochine, R.E.M. and Game Theory/The Loud Family. Depending on how you count the last two, that's either 9 or 10. (And the list is approximately in order of importance.) The truly amazing thing is that I would rather listen to songs I hated in the 80's ("Missing You" by John Waite, for example, or just about anything by Prince) than the stuff which is popular now. When I was in high school, I thought I would always be 'cutting edge' with regards to music. What a laugh. I'm going to be one of those old guys who tells their grandkids that "they've never made music as good as they did in the 80's". - --Swahili Steve p.s. I'm looking for someone in the UK who'd be interested in trading CD's. I really need the new Mark Hollis album, and I'd be happy to exchange some US disc that someone can't get a hold of. p.p.s. Is anyone on the list a northern Californian who has the ability to burn CD's from vinyl? I'd like to do that, just for myself.

Her e-mail is easy to find in the who's who section of the Men Without Hats FAQ site ( http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Venue/3136/home_mwh.html ) > P.S.

I still am looking for a source for the 2fer if anyone knows of one. I knew FOTE was scarce but I wasn't sure how scarce. I found a copy about a month ago at a pawn shop here in Naples FL for $6, what a find! I was hoping the same person might have sold them ROY also but after about an hour of looking through used cds I came up empty handed. Oh well, I guess I can't complain.

Kramer" Subject: (hats) updates . . . Hi Hatters! Wow! I love seeing all these new folks on the list! If Claude hasn't already hit you up for this, send him some biographical info and maybe a picture of yourself for inclusion on the fabulous website that Claude maintains for us. (And yes, Claude, I know I haven't sent in a picture yet - still gotta find one of me without the dog.) 2-Fer update: All the ones that I arranged to get from Thomas are "claimed." I have started a waiting list in case someone changes their mind, or if I can get some more at a later date. I will have to see what I can arrange with Carl and a European lister (hint, hint! taking volunteers . . .). I also have not yet received the next 5 from Thomas's mom yet. Recall that they are coming via surface mail, so may take a long time. I will keep all orderers updated whenever there is a new shipment, so we can kind of get an idea of how long its taking. T-shirt update: I have had a *very* *AWFUL* new year so far, and have not yet placed the T-shirt order. Hopefully, I can pull the requests from my two addresses together tonight and post an updated order list tonight or tomorrow so people can check for errors. Anyway, on the plus side, all you new folks can still order a T-shirt. Your choices are XL and XXL (they shrink), and White or ROY-Gold (matched to my 2-fer CD cover). The front has the MWH logo in black and red (very large), and on the back it has "The Great Ones Remember" and the list address. No limit on how many T's you can order - one to save for posterity and one to wear all the time, one for each day of the week, whatever. The more we order, the cheaper they are! I hope to have these for under $15 apiece, including mailing in the US (more to mail outside of the US, of course). Well, that's all for now, I guess! Again, welcome to the new folks!! :-) Laura in NC # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info hats" in the message. # Postings must go to hats@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Men Without Hats discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?hats ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 2 Feb 1998 09:11:14 +0000 From: "Richard Holdman" Subject: (hats) CD Boot info Looks like I got a lot of response for the bootlegs - On the weekend I burned over 20 CDs :) If anybody else wants any let me know.

Kramer" Subject: (hats) 2-fers list Hi Hatters! Sorry for the list clutter - I'll be doing this again tomorrow with the T's probably, so bear with me. ;-) Before Xmas, I had in my hot little paws 10 of the 2-fers obtained by Thomas, with 20 more in Germany with Thomas's mom. After receiving your replies from my offer the week before Xmas, the 10 disks went to the first 10 people who wrote after the time and date I specified. After that, as the requests came in, I put people on the list to claim the other 20 that are still in Germany. After those 20 were claimed, further requests were put on a waiting list pending another deal through a European supplier (still hoping for a volunteer!). So, #s 11 through 30 are just waiting on the mail from Germany. In case you've forgotten who you are (I know it's been a while, but that's surface mail for you!) 11-15: Jon Stanley, Brad Day, Tyge Spane, Steve Reid, Charlotte Stout I expect your CDs to arrive any day now. 16-20: John Stallings, Adam Weitzman, PD Kolb, Mark Frey, Richard Holdeman 21-25: Alex Billings, Bob Webb, Keith Walker, Chris Larrow, Dale Plantz 26-30: Nicholas Pinto, David Burdick, George Polly, Dave Krupla, Dave Brady. The CDs are being sent in sets of 5, approximately 2 weeks apart. Thomas thought that this way Customs on both sides of the Atlantic wouldn't get their panties in a wad. Anyway, that's the way the CD distribution is shaping up. Hope this alleviates some of the confusion.
